    I got my start with schneider a few years ago. as a newbie i would reccomend the training there for anyone. it is a good place for a newbie to get started get your feet wet for about a year then move on to bigger and better things. i was actually in the tanker division and i really liked my job there but the pay sucked like i said though. it is a good place to get your feet wet get the experiance you need and you may want to stay. it is a good polace to work. i was just offered a job that i could not refuse and that was the only reason that i left.

    Yay!! I was offered the job... I quote you because you say that you started a few years ago. Now my question to you is, before starting with Schneider, i'm sure you had to take the DOT drug test. Did you have to take both urine and hair test? I was told that I must undergo both of these DOT test in order to start. I'm not nerves or anything because pot and drugs isn't my thing. However, an inch of my hair? Not to mention "I'm bald". So the lady tells me on the phone that l must find hair somewhere on my body that's an inch...

    A lot of times they'll take hair from your armpits even if you have hair on your head.

    yes, i done both urine and hair last April for Schneider..they can shave your arm, leg, back or whatever..it really doesnt have to be an inch long, they just have to get a patch of it.
